The Daily Telegraph claim Conte is eyeing up to six new signings, with Willy Caballero and Leonardo Bonucci potentially representing goalkeeper and central defensive additions.

The 23-year-old, who has also been linked to both Arsenal and Manchester United, has just 12 months left on his current deal at Goodison Park and has not yet agreed terms over a new deal.

The signing of Davy Klaassen and possibly impending arrival of Spurs target Gylfi Sigurdsson has also hinted that Everton are already spending the money they could be set to earn from the sale of Lukaku.

Former Everton captain Alan Stubbs weighed in on the debate and claimed Arsenal might be the best team for Barkley of the London clubs vying for his signature.

"The fact that Ross still hasn’t signed, I think that’s the biggest indicator that his future lies elsewhere," he said.

"With Tottenham you have got Dele Alli in a similar position and, looking at Dele, he is ahead of Ross at this moment in time.

"Looking at those teams I think Arsenal are probably a team that he could go to."
